@jstorey72 did you activate your SIM card instore or online? If you activated online, you created an account. If instore, clear your browser history, go to private/ incognito mode and try again to set yp your self service account. Enter the 10 digit pjone numner without any dasjes or spaces. Stay safe.

You should realize that currently, Lucky Mobile doesn't not provide any customer support via call centre either.

One question however. You said you tried before. Did you get halfway through it and received an error?

Then have at it. You're not on a contract here.

When I was looking around a couple years ago, there was an agent that did say something about the lack of support. I thought...well I hardly ever use support with the big Telus. So I dismissed it as a concern and just a competitor gripe. And indeed, I've needed support all of once.

@jstorey72 

 

If that's how you feel than maybe you should consider that service. However you did join Public Mobile at that store. So if you can answer these questions we can try helping you.

 

Make/model of phone?

Plan you're on?

Detailed explanation of issue you're having?

@jstorey72 Hi instead of complaining why not let us try and help what is the issue

@jstorey72  it's not a bad service you're actually on the Telus network as Telus owns Public Mobile. 

 

So can you explain the issue you're having so we can help you?

@jstorey72 This service is not for everyone if you don’t like to solve your issues online maybe it’s not for you

This is just how public mobile does things so we can all enjoy lower prices. It does state this on the main page before deciding to join this service.

 

What is your issue? Maybe we can help.
